Andy

Jean-Lynce has just brought my Godin A4 - great communication and prompt payment. A pleasure to deal with - have no hesitation.

What, no coffin cases? Pfft!

 

Just for you 

Paul just bought one of my basses - excellent communication and, as has been said before, a really friendly transaction. Thanks Paul!

Hi Andy,

Just a quick reply here to see if the Godin is still available ?

Was wondering where exactly the tiny ding/imperfection in the lacquer is located . . . I'm only viewing on an old iPad this end but I can't spot the ding ?

Could you confirm the neck profile . . is it more like a Jazz or a precision profile ? . . ie, in terms of "chunkiness", nut width etc . . .

Anyway I may be interested if your still want to move it on ?

 

PM'd

It looks amazing. My one is my favourite bass of all time - and it doesn’t look anywhere near as nice as your one. Is yours also lightweight?

Thanks Luke! Yes, it is pretty light - weighs in at 4.1kg.

That's in beautiful condition @Andy and given that  it's also a top quality piece of kit, this is a real bargain for someone!

Thanks Nik - I'm hoping it will be a quality bargain for someone who needs to work on a smaller budget

I played this yesterday and it’s absolutely gorgeous. The pictures don’t do the colour justice at all.  In fact if I had the money it would already be in Essex. Andy is a top bloke to deal with to 👍🏻

Thanks for the kind words Paul

I've owned this combo from new in 1992 (it still has the sticker of the shop I used to work at!)

It's in excellent condition. It was used for rehearsals gigs for a few years in the 90's but has been in storage ever since.

150w Power Amp. 7 band graphic eq. 15'' Speaker.

It also still has the original Trace Elliot soft cover.

No trades sorry. Collection only.

My Feedback: 

For sale is my Markbass 121-lie Alain Caron. I've owned this from new and it's in excellent condition (home use only).

No trades sorry. Collection only.

I had a Roscoe Beck signature 4 string, which was absolutely lovely, but the narrow nut was eventually something I couldn’t live with anymore ☹️.

Yeah, I was just kidding - you've got to stick to what's comfortable ( I struggle with anything wider than a Jazz bass neck and prefer a narrower string spacing at the bridge)

Just now, ezbass said:

My, oh my, that is sooo pretty! I’m just glad that the nut width is too narrow for my paws (I get on best with a P/‘Ray type width), otherwise the price and proximity would have Lady Ez scolding the living 💩 out of me. GLWTS, I really can’t this hanging around long.

You'll be surprised how quickly you'll

get used to the slim nut  

Up for sale is my mint condition 2015 Sadowsky Metro Will Lee. 

I've owned this one from new  (purchased from GuitarGuitar) 

It's a light, versatile bass with a very smooth, slim neck and low action. I've attached a video demonstration and Sadowosky's own printed guide to the tone controls to give a quick overview of some of the tonal possibilities (it also has a factory installed d-tuner).

The bass has a fantastic high quality nitro-cellulose finish that really allows the Ash grain to show through the wood - reminiscent of the mid/late 50's Fender Blonde finishes.

Spec from Sadowsky:

No trades sorry. Collection preferred.

My feedback: 

Paul bought my UV70 today - a real gent and an absolute pleasure to deal with - have no hesitation

Thanks for the comments - and yes, still available (I haven't bumped it during lockdown)

The weight comes out at 4.3kg.

Serial number dates it to 2014.

As far as I'm aware, as a 2014 it will have a graphite reinforced neck.

haha ...  Freudian slip! Yes it was indeed a refret and no regret involved whatsoever  

Guy brought my CS Jazz Bass recently.

A really good experience  - great communication &  a top bloke!

Thanks Guy

That's lovely. The neck looks very clean - has it had a new fingerboard as well as the refret?

This has a 1-piece neck so not a new fingerboard but Martin (Bass Gallery / SEI) did a great job of refinishing it when he regretted the bass for me.

Recently had my 3rd dealing with Andy, twice buying and once selling. Always a genuine pleasure, feeling more social than transactional. 

Andy knows a good bass and has exquisite taste - so if you’re buying from him you’re in for a treat  

Thanks for the kind words Daniel!

Daniel brought his Lull back from me over the weekend.

As always, a genuine pleasure to deal with - highly recommended BCer!

So sad 😞 

I went to his workshop a few years back, he was a perfect host and clearly a warm and genuine guy. Just for fun, Mike was excitedly asking me to try an original 57 P Bass he was working on, which I did, but I was more excited about playing his own P Bass and the beauties hanging on the wall.

I owned a few of Mike’s basses, there’s one I really shouldn’t have let go of in hindsight as I sold it for a more expensive vintage bass I couldn’t really afford, @Andy has her now  

RIP Mike 

 

Could always put that one right for you Daniel - I'm just starting to thin out my newer gear in favour of vintage so it could be available for you if you're really missing it!

I've just sold a bass to Yannick -  really clear communication and a pleasure to deal with!

Thanks Yannick  

I've got a full bodied Riverhead - Great basses for the money!

Ooh! Used to have one similar but rosewood board, why did I ever sell it!

Here's your chance to make it right again!
